Editor Grady, of the Atlanta Constitution.
thinks Cleveland will have without call the
delegates from ten out of eleven of the
Southern States in the next Democratic con-
yention. In Georgia, the political sky is
lovely for the Democrats, and Mr.. Grady can
see but one cloud-the prohibition move
ment The Georgia editors judgment is
probably pretty sound. If Cleveland does
not getthe Southern delegations his admiris-
tration will be an utter failure, since dele
gates are what he is working for now As
to the prohibition vote, the experience Of
Texas shows that in Southern State it may
have many of the characteristics of the small
cloud no larger than mans hand that
causes mariners to tremble when they see it
on the horizon Of tropical seas.

When the Manitobans get ready to rebel
over the Dominion governments refusal to
allow them to build railroad down to the
United States they will undoubtedly find
some Of Louis Riel's old half-breeds ready
to help them. Gabriel Dumont, Riel's old
aid-de-camp, has formed an alliance with a
Fenan leader. and together they are doing
all they can with high-sounding proclama-
tiOns to incite the people of the Northwest
to Rebellion. They call themselves the Ca
madam Revolutionary League.

EFFECT OF EVENTS,

Some few of the more intelligent capitalists are beginning to compre- bend the fact that Labor is organ lzed to some extent, and are begin ming to pay tribute Gin left handed way, 'tls true) to the waking giant. The New York Sun, however we may disagree with it, is undoubtedly one of the intelligent enemies of the coming order of things, and no doubt for the mere sake of convincing it's readers that its editor is not quite a fool acknowledges certain hard facts. For instance, speaking of the recent strike of the coal shoyellers and at tending incidents, it says:
 "Whatever else the strikers have failed to accomplish, they have not failed to increase and intersify the wholesome re- spect which has now for several years been growing in the minds of employers for the human rights of the employed. The old fashioned idea, derived from feudal times, that it was favor to man to find work for him, and that he ought to take any wages he could get and be humbly thankful to his master, has re ceived another severe blow, and has been pushed a little further toward its destined extinction"
 One can see that the .SnH at least recognizes facts that are big enough to be seen without microscope. It recognizes the fact, also, that labor organizations are imperfect, as shown by the only partial success of the movement. So far, Socialists can agree with the Sun.
 But the Sun sees more good still in the strikes. It says:
 "The strikes have done another good thing in bringing out some hitherto se- cret purposes and principles of their leaders. For instance, they have given occasion to Master Workman Quinn to advocate publicly the theory of State Socialism, or the management of all great public industrial enterprises by the Gov ernment. Some ill-informed people have ridlculed Mr. Quinn as sort of idiot for
Workmen's advocate., 1887-02-19

entertaining this idea, but they are not aware that 1t has the countenance of a political party in Germany called the Social Democrats, and is entertained by theoretical philosophers elsewhere"
 The Sun speaks wiser words than many of those in I.abor's ranks, cap italistic as it is. The Dry Goods Clerks Assemblies, for instance, in passing resolutions of horror at Mas ter Workman Quinn's position, come under the head of "ill-informed persons.
 Now, the Sun does not agree with the Socialists at all-Dana is not likely to acknowledge himself in the wrong as a taker of interest and an oXploiter of Labor. But that is i'm materlal-the logic of events is what he needs, and what he will ac- knowledge in due time.

by experience, but Mey pay for that experience.
 Not only do the people pay in money for the benefits derived from the private benefit associations, but in time and extra work. They at tend meetings and discuss the affairs of their societies and unions. They serve on committees and as officials without pay. The more enthusiast lc workers among them absent them SC Ives from their families to attend to the affairs of their pet societies. Many of our readers will recognize this; but vii! they not also draw in- ferences?
 Let us suggest line of thought: Here we have the ballot, and the unlimited resources of the country at the ballots command. We may accept this as fact until it is proved untrue by reasonable force. We have the State, the county, the town, the borough; the city, the ward and the election district. In these divisions we have our respcc- tive duties and powers. NotoriousIy we have neglected to use them for our benefit. Politics has been left to politicians. If we paid one-tenth as much attention to our duties as members of the political divisions as we do to our private societies, much more could be accomplished. Let us substitute the State for the "Grand Lodge," and the citizen for the "member in good standing" and we shall find that to be a citizen in the full sense of the word will confer greater benefits than all the experimental and really superhous societies put together. This theme, if enlarged upon by our intelligent readers will suggest to them the pos abilities and beauties of the Social istic State-the Cooperative Com monweaIth.

RUSSELL'S SPECTACLES.

One of our good citizens permitted few friends to lock through his spectacles at Socialism, and ac- cording to a report in the Nor0ing NewS the view obtained was rather vague, not to say misleading. Here are some of panoramic effects which amused aud delighted Socialists and anarchists respectively:
 Socialists, in their legislation would forget the individual and legislate for the whOe.'
 Socialism is fatal to individual char acter."
 Ut is better to have an occa ional riot and that sort of thing than to teach peo- pie to keep looking to the State for everything"
 One of the finest views obtained was of the "socialistic ideas" dicta- ting to the State:
 "Pay all men alike whether they work much or work little.'
 That Socialists would legislate for the whole people rather than for in dIvlduals is true enough. That is where they differ from the corrupt legislators of the present who legis- late, not in the interest of the whole people, but in the interest of class, and that class the capitalist class.
 As to Socialism being fatal to in- dividual character, we think that Socialists will compare favorably with the advocates of capitalism.
 "Occaslonal riots and that sort of thing Socialists don't want. Such things play into the hands of capi- tallsts every time. And as to look ing to the State for justice, it is sim ply looking to the people-it is in- Independence. To appeal to the peoples sense of justice is better in our opinion than "riots and that sort of thing"
 We would respectfully advise our friend Russell to procure a better pair of spectacles, or at least discard those capitalistic and deceptive ones which makes him believe that So- cialism favors paying "all men alike, whether they work much or little." But even that would be better than paying little or nothing to those who do work, and paying large fortunes out of the labor of the workers to those who do not work.
 But to look through such spec tacles Is enough to make q fellow cock-eyed.

OUR GREEK BROTHERS.

The economic conditions that ob- tain in this country do not prevail in Greece. There production on a large scale is not the rule. In the country districts they still use sharp sticks for blows, and women work in the field with men. So. it may be easily imagined that the Social ism advocated there does not com prehend all the characteristics of German or American socialistic de- mands. There is not as yet, we be- heye, a Soclallstlc Party in Greece Still, judging from the platform published in Arden, our Athenian contemporary, there is room for much improvement in the condition Of the working people of Greece. Whether they must go through the same process of evolution as the Anglo-Sayons and northern races before they reach a condition that will demand revolutionary reform will depend upon the advance of Socialism in Western Europe.
 The motto of .lrdeA is: "The Truth shall make you free" And its platform calls for:
 "A life free from the cares of pro- viding.
 "A regular and healthful sustenance for everybody.
 Housing according to the rules of health.
 sufficient clean clothing for every one.
 Abundant means of education accord ing to every mans inclination.
 "rhree hours Iper day necessary labor for everyon
 There IS q seventh demand in favor of women.
 From these demands it Is natural to suppose that healthful sustenance, housing, clean clothing, educational advantages, are not enjoyed by d
 
 large proportion of the inhabitants of Greece, and that the opposite is the case with long hours of labor for men and women.
 We hope soon to hear of the or ganizatlon of the Greek workingmen, and trust that they may lean from the experience of the Western na- tions and escape the troubles our capitalistic civilization" entails upon the workers.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.

The Eaverhill Daily Laborer, the only labor daily in New England, is financially embarrassed, and negotia- tlons are now in progress to sell it out to some persons in that city, who propose to run it in the interest. The paper will make more money in supporting the rum inttre than it has in supporting the labor interest. -We People.

SOM ETHING ELSE WANTED.

The Boston HeraW, which oc- caslonally finds time to devote a thought to the Labor problem says that "the higher the wages the stronger the organizations" To this the Labor Lemler replies: "Yes, and the other way around as we'll the stronger the organizations the higher the wages" Yes, and there as still room for one turn more which says ''rhe higher the wages and the stronger the organizations, the higher the prices which the "wages" and Organizations" must pay. There is evidently something else wanted to finish the explanation. HarJorH Etaminer.

The only way that labor can hope to obtain justice at the hands of monopoly is through harmony and perseverance. The reason that cap- ital has the advantage of labor in many cases where trouble arises be- tween employer and employe, is be- cause there is so much dissenson in the ranks of the latter. The dis charge of cigarmakers who are Knights of Labor, simply be because they also belonged to the Interna tional Union, is an act that can not help but prevent that harmony which should prevail throughout labor's ranks. Some of the dis charged men have worked diligently for years to better the condition of
 W wage-workers, and now to be thrown out of employment because they took so much interest in the cause of labor that they belonged to two organizations, and thrown out, too, by one with which they affili- ated, seems to Us, to be an act that will tend to still further widen the breach that should not exist among working people. It will require the combined power of labor to be sue cessful in the objects for which all labor organizations are formed, and where any antagonism exists be- tween the several branches of organ ized industry, the full power of labor can not possibly be brought to bear against monopoly Unionia.
